  Unexpected beauty

Leave a reply

I love those moments that catch you off guard, take your breathe away and let you appreciate the world we live in even if it’s just for a moment before plans and responsibilities pull your head down again.

I live for long drives. Looking out of the window and imagining all that could be or could never be, it’s irrelevant. A good soundtrack can turn a journey into therapy or a party depending on the company. Be it scream out loud, off key, heart racing or golden sunshine, eyes half closed peace, it is a chane for you to sit back and take a breather.

These are the moments that make me happy, that I suddenly remember and that make me smile. I only wish life was full of more in the moment moments and not in the future moments, but I guess you just have to make the most of the ones you’re given.

The past few months have been a massive transition, and an overall shedding of my old patterns and cynicisms, a mourning of the loss of my old life coupled with the embracing of a new one.

Life is inherently unpredictable and chaotic. We do our best at the time, hopefully learn, and then adapt to change with confidence. I’ve never been afraid to change my mind or try something new. But I have been afraid to fully embrace myself from the inside out, to shine my light as bright as I know I can, out of some stark fear of rejection or failure. No more.

Living in a Written World

Today, Congress is going to vote on whether or not to defund Planned Parenthood. The claims against PP are the following:

  • Providing unnecessary abortions
  • Harming women and pushing them into abortions against their will
  • “Unnecessary” birth control.
  • Countless other excuses to get those who don’t want change to get their way.

I am reached the point where I almost can’t even fathom how people are like that. How can you take funding away for something like that? How can you tell a woman, who is looking for a way to PREVENT pregnancy, that she is wrong? How can you tell a young man wanting to have safe, PROTECTED sex that he is wrong for getting FREE condoms when he might not have any other resource in which to get some?

I can’t change people’s mind about their decisions, but I can say this: Planned Parenthood PREVENTED more pregnancies last year…
